• the different functions described below are to be understood as merely exemplary.
• the functional device can provide a mounting device for fastening the housing to a wall.
• the functional device arranged on the intermediate element it is thus possible to fix the housing on a wall, for example a device wall or a wall of a switch cabinet. Due to the fact that the mounting device is provided on the intermediate element, adjustments, in particular to the housing elements of the housing, are not required.
• the bracket may be provided via one or more intermediate members that come to rest between the connecting portions of the housing members.
• a cover element for covering a housing opening can be made available via the functional device.
• the intermediate element is thus connected, for example, to a wall section which, when the housing is mounted, covers a housing opening, for example for providing dust protection.
• the functional device may form a fastening device for fixing at least one component to the housing.
• a so-called strain relief can be provided via the functional device, via which one or more electrical lines can be fixed to the housing, in such a way that tensile forces acting on the electrical lines can be absorbed and discharged via the fastening device.
• the intermediate element has, for example, a body which can be arranged between the at least one first connecting portion and the at least one second connecting portion.
• the body of the intermediate element is thus received between the first connecting portion and the second connecting portion of the housing elements, which is conceivable and possible to provide further spacer elements between the connecting portions, so that, for example, the intermediate element with its body on the one hand to the first connecting portion of the first housing element abuts and on the other hand connected to a spacer element which is supported on the second connecting portion of the second housing element.
• an apron may be arranged which extends from the body of the intermediate element in the direction of the first surface portion or in the direction of the second surface portion.
• the apron for example, the first connecting portion and / or the second connecting portion, to which the intermediate element is attached, overlap outside sections, so that the apron extends outside the connecting portions toward the first surface portion of the first housing member or towards the second surface portion of the second housing member ,
• a holder for the housing can be provided over the apron.
• a mounting flange protrude outwardly to which an attachment point is arranged, with which the housing, for example, on a wall, such as a wall of a control cabinet or on a device wall, can be set.
• the housing can be bolted, for example, with the wall.
• the functional device may have, for example, a housing wall which extends from the body of the intermediate element and is formed integrally with the body, for example.
